Stefan Brunnhuber (born 2 July 1962 in Augsburg) is a German author, psychiatrist, economist and sociologist who works on sustainable development and transformation strategies, following an interdisciplinary approach.

Life and career

[edit]

Following civilian service, vocational training as a medical first responder and an apprenticeship as a car mechanic, Brunnhuber studied medicine in Ulm, where he was awarded his doctorate in 1993 for a thesis on Martin Buber, Martin Heidegger and Sigmund Freud. He also studied philosophy, social education and economic sociology in Ulm, Munich and Konstanz, where he was awarded a second doctorate in 1998 for a thesis on Karl Popper's concept of an open society.[1][2]

Brunnhuber trained as a specialist in psychiatry and psychotherapy at University Hospital Saarland (UKS) and worked in addition as a first aid emergency doctor in the Saarland. He subsequently took a post as a senior physician at University Hospital Würzburg (1999–2007). Following visiting professorships in the USA (Mayo Clinic, UCLA), he completed a habilitation degree at the University of Würzburg in the field of medical sociology, medical psychology and psychotherapy. His thesis was entitled "The importance of affect psychology for the formation of psychosomatic symptoms".[1][3]

Brunnhuber is currently medical director of the Diakonie Kliniken Zschadraß (the academic teaching hospital of TU Dresden and University Hospital Salzburg) and chief physician in the department of psychiatry, psychosomatics and psychotherapy. He holds a chair in sustainability, social medicine, psychosomatics and complementary medicine at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences.[4][5][6]

M. Keynes, Milton Friedman, Carl Jung, Hans Albert, systems theory, the Desert Fathers, Japanese Zen and high medieval Christian mysticism.[10][11]

Brunnhuber describes his research interests as following an 'evolutionary, integral, translational, practically oriented, human-centric approach'.[12]
